This is no April fools joke – the clock has sped up…6 months until “a love story” the RCAA show starting Oct 4th… 18 months until “52” in October of 2013. “52” is my new working title…. I’ll talk more about the title later.

We still haven’t been able to present to RAM

Dudamel with Sharon & Terry

Gershwin – enjoyed the interviews, watching rehearsals and being with Sharon & Terry. Had a realization on what I like/enjoy and don’t.

Art- when I see realistic art I might appreciate the talent behind the work but I don’t feel the art like I do when it’s abstract/contemporary.

Nature – what I like about nature is the bridge between realism and abstract. The colors and textures of nature are the bridge.

Music that is familiar, safe and happy doesn’t move me.. . I like more classical and alternative music

100 papers @ $4.50 = $450
